Too Bad
Too bad today’s not Turkey Day;
It’s sunny, crisp and bright.
Tomorrow will be pouring, which
For travel isn’t right.
The floats in the parade, as well
As families who wait
To see the bands and the balloons
Will all be tempting fate.
Yet still, the holiday will be
A gathering of kin
And maybe friends to join to help
The festive meal begin.
The rain may dampen spirits
But when everyone’s together,
Thanksgiving will be much the same,
Despite the nasty weather.
